Confused about which day it is during this lull between the festive season? Welcome to the period between Christmas and New Year: Twixmas. It’s a time to unwind and reflect before the New Year begins. Look at our activity suggestions for this transitional period before 2024 starts.
Activities for the In-Between Days:
Embrace the Great Outdoors:
- Jump on the winter walk bandwagon. It’s a refreshing way to stretch your legs after the indulgences of Christmas Day and soak in the crisp winter air.
- Enjoy outdoors sports like catch or frisbee with your family, friends, or loved ones.
Family Fun:
- Notice the family bickering over trivial matters? Channel that energy by taking them out for a lively session of bowling or a round of mini-golf.
- It’s a great way to bond, laugh off disagreements, and discover who has the best swing in the family.
Gifts & Board Games:
- Unwrap those presents you received and haven’t yet explored.
- Wear your new clothes or try out the presents Santa brought.
- Dive into that new board game you received in your stocking – if you’re stuck for ideas, Articulate is always a winner!
Films & TV:
- Browse TV listings for movies or shows you’ve missed. (Dr Who springs to mind if you missed it on Christmas Day!)
- Rediscover classics from your childhood or introduce younger family members to timeless films e.g., The Great Escape or Chicken Run (we hear there is a new one on Netflix 👀)
Food & Leftovers:
- Utilise the remnants in your fridge to create something other than the
- Turkey curry from Bridget Jones’ Diary – get creative!
These are just some suggestions to navigate the laid-back days after Christmas. What are your plans? Whether it’s a jam-packed schedule or a more relaxed approach, the key is to make the most of this time before the New Year.
